Feminismo y economía para deconstruir estereotipos
Quinn Slobodian a historian of modern Germany and international history analysis of current development in the Mont Pèlerin Society and therefore neo-liberalism. He sees neo-liberalist thinkers less as believers in the self-healing power of markets, but more as ordo-liberal Globalists who wanted to protect the markets from post-war politics and especially mass democracy. Their goal of global capitalism is still strong, however sceptics in the Mont Pèlerin Society are rising, which see international migration as a threat to Globalisation. Therefore, turning neo-liberal policies away from international institutions like the EU back towards the national states as new defenders of the markets as well as international trade and investments.
(A development which can be seen in the Friedrich A. von Hayek-Gesellschaft and especially in the "liberal" wing of the German rightwing populist party AfD)

Global Social Theory is a large wiki-like project by Gurminder K Bhambra. Its central aim is decolonising and diversifying universities, production of knowledge, and social thought in general.
It represents a large online library divided into three parts: concepts, thinkers, and topics in/of social theory and decolonial thought. Every part comprises of short, introductory articles on an according theme. It may be helpful to give you a general overview (and a list of basic readings) on the most essential areas of social theory: caste, class, and race; civil society; racism; secularism; feminism and many others.
It may also allow students whose university curriculum in sociology, economics, or other social sciences lacks diversity to compensate for that.

Pandemics, Climate Change, and Global Economics: Where Did We Go Wrong in Globalization?
En este artículo se argumenta que la corriente dominante en economía no es un bloque monolítico sino que, más bien, se compone de un núcleo ortodoxo en el que prevalece el pensamiento neoclásico y un conjunto de enfoques de vanguardia que comparten con la ortodoxia su interés por la modelación formal (matemática, computacional o estadística) y por el análisis del comportamiento micro para describir fenómenos agregados. Al revisar las fichas bibliográficas de la base de datos de RePEc (Research Papers in Economics) se encuentra, por un lado, que las investigaciones que se realizaron a nivel mundial con enfoques de vanguardia tuvieron un gran crecimiento en el periodo 2000-2012 y, por otro, que las investigaciones económicas de índole vanguardista en México son relativamente escasas. Esta falta de pluralidad también se refleja en los programas de licenciatura y posgrado de las universidades mexicanas, en donde la estructura curricular se limita la mayoría de las veces a planteamientos ortodoxos y en unos cuantos casos a tratamientos heterodoxos (es decir, que se ubican fuera de la corriente dominante).
¿Se encuentra la ciencia económica en México en la vanguardia de la corriente dominante?
